When it comes to CAPEX cost reduction in capital projects, TSX is the number-one reference in the Brazilian market. More than 100 projects have already been developed to renowned companies in different sectors over the last 26 years. Our portfolio includes corporations such as Vale, ArcelorMittal, Votorantim, Usiminas, CSN, Toshiba, Anglo American, Lafarge Holcim, etc.
All that experience in capital projects, internationalization and performance gain has led TSX to develop a unique and proprietary methodology named Total Savings X-cellence ® whose main purpose is CAPEX cost reduction. Other important achievements of our methodology include quality and efficiency in project management, compliance with contract terms, risk mitigation, and project cost reduction.
TSX service technology is sustained by three pillars, as follows:
The practical intelligence generated by years of experience in several projects is a differential of TSX, either in capital direct investment, internationalization, or performance gain.
The second pillar that makes TSX unique on the market is its capacity to integrate subjects efficiently during the development of any corporate project.
The intelligence and integration attributes demand the full comprehension of circumstances and the specific challenges in each project. This is a remarkable and fundamental feature in the relationship between TSX and its customers.
High prices, surplus costs, and schedule delays jeopardize project value generation to stockholders by harming their management credibility. As a consequence, companies may take a risk making significant investments, and not reaching the intended results.
Having developed a business model aiming at the solution of complex demands, TSX contributes to the efficient development of the project and its conclusion within the time and value estimated, thus guaranteeing the commitment to security and quality. All this is achieved by the integration of distinct factors, such as engineering, commercial aspects, and administrative subjects aligned to a tax, fiscal and logistical perspective.
TSX stands for Total Savings X-cellence®, a proprietary methodology meticulously developed and relied on more than 25 years of experience in both the national and international market by the specialized team of TSX
The TSX methodology aims at project CAPEX cost reduction, and has already been applied successfully to over 100 projects of big corporations in different market segments. Aside from savings that may represent up to 11% of direct and indirect savings, the TSX methodology ensures an efficient management of the project throughout each and every step that has contributed to a direct and indirect tax cost reduction of more than 4.2 B to our customers.
The TSX methodology is applied in two stages – from the project conception to its completion – so as to demonstrate the commitment to the customer along the whole investment:
Optimization of cost reductions and project risk mitigation from the customer’s baseline (fee-free).
At this stage, the results calculated according to the baseline analyses and verifications are made available.
Demonstration of the analyses and methodology qualification by prior indication of a PREMIUM fee for the accomplishment of the reduction targets. After the qualitative demonstration of targets, they will be submitted to the customer for partial or full approval.
Should the project go on, the PREMIUM fee will be applied to the project subsequent stages according to the events along its evolution up to completion.
